قَالُوا أَتَعْجَبِينَ مِنْ أَمْرِ اللَّهِ رَحْمَةُ اللَّهِ وَبَرَكَاتُهُ عَلَيْكُمْ أَهْلَ الْبَيْتِ إِنَّهُ حَمِيدٌ مَجِيدٌ[ They said, 'Are you amazed at the decree of Allah? The mercy of Allah and His blessings be upon you (and the) people of the house. Indeed, He is Praiseworthy and Honorable.']

فَلَمَّا ذَهَبَ عَنْ إِبْرَاهِيمَ الرَّوْعُ وَجَاءَتْهُ الْبُشْرَى يُجَادِلُنَا فِي قَوْمِ لُوطٍ[ And when the awe subsided and the good tidings had reached him, Ibrahim (عليه السلام) started to plead with Us concerning the people of Loot (عليه السلام).]

وَلَمَّا جَاءَتْ رُسُلُنَا لُوطًا سِيءَ بِهِمْ وَضَاقَ بِهِمْ ذَرْعًا وَقَالَ هَذَا يَوْمٌ عَصِيبٌ[ And when Our messengers, (the angels), came to Loot (عليه السلام) (in human form as handsome youths). He was anguished for them and felt for them great discomfort (not being able to protect them from his disbelieving people) and said, 'This is a trying day.']

Juz 12, Hood, Verse 078

وَجَاءَهُ قَوْمُهُ يُهْرَعُونَ إِلَيْهِ وَمِنْ قَبْلُ كَانُوا يَعْمَلُونَ السَّيِّئَاتِ قَالَ يَا قَوْمِ هَؤُلَاءِ بَنَاتِي هُنَّ أَطْهَرُ لَكُمْ فَاتَّقُوا اللَّهَ وَلَا تُخْزُونِ فِي ضَيْفِي أَلَيْسَ مِنْكُمْ رَجُلٌ رَشِيدٌ[ And his people came rushing towards him, and they had been long in the habit of practicing immorality. He said : 'O my people! There are my daughters (the girls of the tribe) who are purer for you (so marry them). Now fear Allah, and let me not get overwhelmed with shame (in front of my) guests! Is there not among you a single right-minded person?']

Juz 12, Hood, Verse 079

قَالُوا لَقَدْ عَلِمْتَ مَا لَنَا فِي بَنَاتِكَ مِنْ حَقٍّ وَإِنَّكَ لَتَعْلَمُ مَا نُرِيدُ[ They said : 'Surely you know that we have neither any need nor any desire of your daughters (the women of the tribe), and indeed you know well what we want.']

Juz 12, Hood, Verse 080

قَالَ لَوْ أَنَّ لِي بِكُمْ قُوَّةً أَوْ آَوِي إِلَى رُكْنٍ شَدِيدٍ[ He said, ‘If only I had the power to deter you, or could take refuge in a mighty support!’ ]

Juz 12, Hood, Verse 081

قَالُوا يَا لُوطُ إِنَّا رُسُلُ رَبِّكَ لَنْ يَصِلُوا إِلَيْكَ فَأَسْرِ بِأَهْلِكَ بِقِطْعٍ مِنَ اللَّيْلِ وَلَا يَلْتَفِتْ مِنْكُمْ أَحَدٌ إِلَّا امْرَأَتَكَ إِنَّهُ مُصِيبُهَا مَا أَصَابَهُمْ إِنَّ مَوْعِدَهُمُ الصُّبْحُ أَلَيْسَ الصُّبْحُ بِقَرِيبٍ[ O' Loot (عليه السلام) (said the angels), we have indeed been sent by your Lord. They will never be able to harm you. So, leave (your home) late at night with your family, and none of you should turn back to look; but your wife will suffer (what) they are going to suffer. Their hour of doom is in the morning. Is not the morning near?' ]

مُسَوَّمَةً عِنْدَ رَبِّكَ وَمَا هِيَ مِنَ الظَّالِمِينَ بِبَعِيدٍ[Marked by your Lord. Such a punishment is not far away from the unjust people. ]

Juz 12, Hood, Verse 084

وَإِلَى مَدْيَنَ أَخَاهُمْ شُعَيْبًا قَالَ يَا قَوْمِ اعْبُدُوا اللَّهَ مَا لَكُمْ مِنْ إِلَهٍ غَيْرُهُ وَلَا تَنْقُصُوا الْمِكْيَالَ وَالْمِيزَانَ إِنِّي أَرَاكُمْ بِخَيْرٍ وَإِنِّي أَخَافُ عَلَيْكُمْ عَذَابَ يَوْمٍ مُحِيطٍ[ And to Midian (We sent) Shuaib (عليه السلام), their brother (a person from their own community). He said, ‘O my people! Worship Allah. You have no other god besides Him. And do not decrease from the measure and the scale. Indeed, I see you in prosperity, but certainly, I fear for you the punishment of an all encompassing Day. ]

بَقِيَّةُ اللَّهِ خَيْرٌ لَكُمْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ مُؤْمِنِينَ وَمَا أَنَا عَلَيْكُمْ بِحَفِيظٍ['What Allah leaves with you (the lawful profit) is better for you, if you are believers. And I am not a keeper and watcher over you.' ]

Juz 12, Hood, Verse 087

قَالُوا يَا شُعَيْبُ أَصَلَاتُكَ تَأْمُرُكَ أَنْ نَتْرُكَ مَا يَعْبُدُ آَبَاؤُنَا أَوْ أَنْ نَفْعَلَ فِي أَمْوَالِنَا مَا نَشَاءُ إِنَّكَ لَأَنْتَ الْحَلِيمُ الرَّشِيدُ[They said : 'O Shuaib (عليه السلام), does your piety teach that we should abandon what our fathers worshiped, or desist from doing what we like with our goods? Do you think that only you are forbearing and rightly guided. ]

Juz 12, Hood, Verse 088

قَالَ يَا قَوْمِ أَرَأَيْتُمْ إِنْ كُنْتُ عَلَى بَيِّنَةٍ مِنْ رَبِّي وَرَزَقَنِي مِنْهُ رِزْقًا حَسَنًا وَمَا أُرِيدُ أَنْ أُخَالِفَكُمْ إِلَى مَا أَنْهَاكُمْ عَنْهُ إِنْ أُرِيدُ إِلَّا الْإِصْلَاحَ مَا اسْتَطَعْتُ وَمَا تَوْفِيقِي إِلَّا بِاللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ تَوَكَّلْتُ وَإِلَيْهِ أُنِيبُ[He said ‘O my people have you considered that I might be acting upon a clear proof from my Lord and that He has provided me with good sustenance from Him? And I do not wish for myself what I forbid you. I only wish to reform you as best as I can. My success is from Allah alone. In Him I have placed my trust and to Him I turn. ]

Juz 12, Hood, Verse 089

وَيَا قَوْمِ لَا يَجْرِمَنَّكُمْ شِقَاقِي أَنْ يُصِيبَكُمْ مِثْلُ مَا أَصَابَ قَوْمَ نُوحٍ أَوْ قَوْمَ هُودٍ أَوْ قَوْمَ صَالِحٍ وَمَا قَوْمُ لُوطٍ مِنْكُمْ بِبَعِيدٍ[And O my people, let not your defiance from me cause you to be struck by that similar to what struck the people of Nooh or the people of Hood or the people of salih (عليهم السلام). And the people of Loot (عليه السلام) are not distant from you. ]

قَالُوا يَا شُعَيْبُ مَا نَفْقَهُ كَثِيرًا مِمَّا تَقُولُ وَإِنَّا لَنَرَاكَ فِينَا ضَعِيفًا وَلَوْلَا رَهْطُكَ لَرَجَمْنَاكَ وَمَا أَنْتَ عَلَيْنَا بِعَزِيزٍ[They said, 'O Shuaib (عليه السلام), we do not understand much of what you say. Indeed we see you are weak among us, and were it not for your (respectable) tribe, we would have stoned you (to death), and (surely) you are not respectable to us.' ]

Juz 12, Hood, Verse 092

قَالَ يَا قَوْمِ أَرَهْطِي أَعَزُّ عَلَيْكُمْ مِنَ اللَّهِ وَاتَّخَذْتُمُوهُ وَرَاءَكُمْ ظِهْرِيًّا إِنَّ رَبِّي بِمَا تَعْمَلُونَ مُحِيطٌ [He said, 'O my people! Is the respect of my tribe over you is more than Allah? And you have cast Him behind your back. No doubt, whatever you do, is under the control of my Lord.' ]

Juz 12, Hood, Verse 093

وَيَا قَوْمِ اعْمَلُوا عَلَى مَكَانَتِكُمْ إِنِّي عَامِلٌ سَوْفَ تَعْلَمُونَ مَنْ يَأْتِيهِ عَذَابٌ يُخْزِيهِ وَمَنْ هُوَ كَاذِبٌ وَارْتَقِبُوا إِنِّي مَعَكُمْ رَقِيبٌ[O my people! keep on acting as per your wishes, I too am working (as per my belief). Soon you will know who will be overtaken by a punishment that will disgrace him, and who is a liar. So be on the watch; I too will be watching along with you.’ ]

إِلَى فِرْعَوْنَ وَمَلَئِهِ فَاتَّبَعُوا أَمْرَ فِرْعَوْنَ وَمَا أَمْرُ فِرْعَوْنَ بِرَشِيدٍ[To Pharaoh and his elite, but they followed Pharaoh’s dictates, and Pharaoh’s dictates were not right-minded. ]

Juz 12, Hood, Verse 098

يَقْدُمُ قَوْمَهُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ فَأَوْرَدَهُمُ النَّارَ وَبِئْسَ الْوِرْدُ الْمَوْرُودُ[On the Day of Resurrection he will lead his people and drive them into Hell like cattle are driven to water. What an evil place to reach! ]

Juz 12, Hood, Verse 099

وَأُتْبِعُوا فِي هَذِهِ لَعْنَةً وَيَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ بِئْسَ الرِّفْدُ الْمَرْفُودُ[They were pursued by a curse in the world, (that will continue) on the Day of Resurrection. (Thus) evil is the award conferred (on them)! ]

The above verses provide a clear proof that Pharaoh and his people died on disbelieve, accordingly, they will be punished on the Day of Judgement.

Juz 12, Hood, Verse 100

ذَلِكَ مِنْ أَنْبَاءِ الْقُرَى نَقُصُّهُ عَلَيْكَ مِنْهَا قَائِمٌ وَحَصِيدٌ[These are from the news of the townships We relate to you (O' Prophet ﷺ). Of them, some are (still) standing and some have been mown down. ]
